Meghan Trainor Surrogacy Controversy 2026: The Arrival of Mikey Moon

On January 18, 2026, Meghan Trainor and husband Daryl Sabara welcomed their third child, a baby girl named Mikey Moon Trainor. The couple shared the news via social media, expressing deep gratitude for their "superwoman surrogate" and the medical team. The newborn joins big brothers Riley (4) and Barry (2), who reportedly helped choose the baby's middle name.

Trainor, who is set to release her 7th album 'Toy With Me' this April, has been open about wanting a large family. She previously told People that she wants at least four kids. The singer noted that surrogacy was the "safest way" for them to continue growing their family after extensive medical consultations.

Online Backlash and Body Image Rumors

Despite the celebratory news, some netizens attacked the singer, accusing her of using a surrogate to avoid pregnancy-related weight gain. Comments surfaced claiming she "didn’t want to ruin her new skinny body" or that "Ozempic wouldn’t allow" her to gain weight again. Critics also questioned her poses in photos, with some asking why she appeared to be posing in a way that mimicked post-birth recovery.

However, many fans jumped to her defense, pointing out that surrogacy is a deeply personal medical decision. Supporters emphasized the importance of "skin-to-skin" bonding regardless of how a child is born and urged others to stop judging celebrity parents without knowing their private medical histories.
